But [let them always remember that] if We lengthen a human being's days, We also cause him to decline in his powers [when he grows old]: will they not, then, use their reason? 68 We have not taught him poetry; it is not seemly for him. It is only a Remembrance and a Clear Koran, 69 to warn all who are truly alive, and to justify the word [God's verdict] against the deniers. 70 See they not that it is We Who have created for them - among the things which Our hands have fashioned - cattle, which are under their dominion?- 71 and that We have subjected them to men's will, so that some of them they may use for riding and of some they may eat, 72 And they derive other advantages and drinks from them. Even then they do not offer thanks, 73 And yet they have taken gods, other than Allah, so that they might be helped! 74 They are not able to help them, and they [themselves] are for them soldiers in attendance. 75 However, be not grieved by the sayings of those [who deny the truth]: verily, We know all that they keep secret as well as all that they bring into the open. 76 Does not man see We created him from a drop of semen? Even then he becomes an open contender, 77 And applies comparisons to Us, having forgotten his origin, and says: "Who can put life into decayed bones?" 78 Say, "He who brought them into being in the first instance will give them life again: He has knowledge of every type of creation: 79 Who giveth you out of the green tree fire, and lo! ye kindle therewith. 80 Is He who created the heavens and the earth unable to create their like? Yes, indeed, He is the Creator, the Knower. 81 Whenever He wills a thing, He just commands it “Be” and it is. 82 Holy is He Who has full control over everything, and to Him you shall all be recalled. 83
